@lololulu19 said in Other private trackers?:

Pornography is considered to be obscene

No. This statement is false. Use your search engine of choice and put in "is pornography obscene" and you'll get a lot of hits. (Hint: Pay particular attention to the three-part test in Miller v. California.)

you will not find a single case in which someone was successfully sued for copyright infringement of pornographic content

I haven't looked, and I don't intend to. Even though I've spent a lot of time in Africa, I haven't found any tigers. That doesn't mean that they don't exist.

Give this one a rest. If you want attention, go to your local shopping mall and have a wank in the food court.

@Estion uTorrent 3.6 is filled with bugs. My system "auto upgraded" and it was a mess, so I downloaded and re-installed uTorrent 3.5, turning "auto updates" off.

If you search the forum for the term uTorrent, you'll find a handy how-to guide for doing this, posted by @john32123666 . It works very well, keeps all your current torrents, etc.

Good luck!

@zomboise Thank you very much!

Does anyone recognise the blond bottom at https://www.gayfuror.com/video/underground-fuck/ ? (This is a low-quality tube video.)

Some screen shots of him from the aforementioned video:

Thanks very much! (The top is potentially interesting, although we can't see his face.)

@raphjd Yes, it turns out that the "making of the 2015/2016/2017 calendar" is live at https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=9ab2ee94bf51613b3f627acd8bc2072fddce83a45d3a9613 .

The "making of 2017" is dead at https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=732bc6620d41e3363f627acd8bc2072fd8e78e14a66b4fa4 , but there are some good preview pics.

I got curious: It's the fourth scene from Halloween Story, at https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=00e8cbf7db7d96ef3f627acd8bc2072fa31cca69ed9a4fa6

The models are Jimmy Andrews, Spencer Locke, & Aaron Roberts. I don't know which is which, but you can search the studio website and identify them.

I can't believe that I beat the awesome and all-knowing @pupkinvasya to identifying something.

@iridium85 It looks like something from He**x studio. I heard someone mention the name "Garrett," although he might not be in this scene. You can search their website on "Garrett" and there are three of them. One of them is bound to show preview pics from this scene and you can narrow it down from there.

The link above has gone to heaven, but pics from the 2013 calendar can be found at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/27/romanian-orthodox-church-2013-calendar_n_2370723.html?utm_hp_ref=fb&src=sp&comm_ref=false

You can see bits of 2015 at https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/eastern-orthodox-priests-pose-sexy-anti-homophobia-calendar-1473836

@drekkin Interesting point. I think trying to enhance something scraped off VHS would be a real problem.

Digitising from large format film can indeed produce good results. There are lots of older films that have been re-scanned with good results--even "Wizard of Oz" from 1939 looks good. But as you say, it's an expensive process, and not cost-effective for 1970's porn to be done that way.

I appreciate the good intentions of people re-processing older porn films. It doesn't always produce the best results, but it's nice that someone would go to the trouble and then share with others.

@drekkin The one I saw was posted today, and is now "unregistered." I downloaded the upscaled version and it's watchable, although I don't have the original to compare. The original was shot on film, with evident dust, fibres, and scratches. That probably plays havoc with software.

@NF16 said in Site duplicate rules as applied to AI enhancement:

1971 SD video upscaled to 4K

I saw that listed. I notice that the "upscaled" version file is the same size as the original, which seems odd.

From the sample still images, it looks like there's an improvement in quality, but video can be different. I wish upscalers would include short samples of the same material from the original video and and upscaled version to allow comparison. 30 seconds would be enough.

@toratora2 said in Utorrent new update weird tracker:

Today utorrent warned me of a new update.

I had a similar problem a while back: uTorrent installed a new version of itself (3.6, I think), filled with problems. I followed the process from john321 above and installed version 3.5.5. It's worked fine ever since. Be sure to follow that last step of unticking both boxes under "updates:"

to make sure the software doesn't "help" you again in the future.

@lololulu19 said in Site duplicate rules as applied to AI enhancement:

I have mentioned dozens of times..

Yes, you certainly have. I'm curious why. Nothing's going to change.

It seems that the OP is advertising a commercial porn site. That's probably not kosher/halal/permitted in the forum.

On the torrent search page, you'll see your username at the upper left. Click on that to get a drop-down menu. From that menu, click on "Details & Stats." On that page, towards the bottom, you'll see "Torrent comments" with a number to the right. Click on that number and it will bring you to a page with all your comments, 25 per page, overflowing onto additional pages.

I think this will only show comments on torrents that are still active (posted) in the system, even if it's dead with no seeders. If you commented on a torrent that was taken down for one reason or another, I don't think that will show up. (I'm not absolutely sure about this, but I did a small random sample of my older comments, and every torrent showed up.)

Happy hunting!

@kingjamking I'd also suggest that you download the torrent and start it in your client even though there are no active seeders. If I get a reseed request and I see that there's someone trying to leech the stuff, I'm more inclined to jump in...assuming of, course, that I still have the content.

@lololulu19 I took it from one of the preview pictures at https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=0d48b5058b3ae6573f627acd8bc2072f7e65d4d57e9e146e . There's probably a way to make an animated .gif from bits of the video, although I don't know how that's done.

Maybe this is an excessive load?

As for the website issue, reloading the page usually fixes it.

@blablarg18 said in Pope Emeritus (aka former Pope) Benedict XVI dead @ 95:

I also can't think of any unique or exceptional way that the Church damages gay people.

Really? REALLY? REALLY?

Perhaps you need to think harder. If you want to continue this topic, move it to the Religion forum group...but I won't take part in that.
